The editors at The New Cold War: Ukraine and
beyond have compiled a report on the significant rise of protests in
Ukraine by factory workers and others against layoffs, cuts to the social wage
and other consequences of the turn by the Kyiv government to association with
austerity Europe. The report draws upon news in Ukrainian media, including the
written reports and translations appearing on the website of our colleagues at
the UK-based Solidarity Against the Antifascist Resistance in Ukraine.

Ottawa on Dec. 4.
